Monday evening’s TV ratings are in.  Here’s a brief look at the highlights:

• The recently renewed Sleepy Hollow dipped a bit this week, as the Fox drama scored a 2.7 rating in the 18-49 demo and 7.76 million viewers.  That’s down three tenths from last week’s 3.0 rating.
• Over on NBC, The Blacklist garnered a 3.2 rating and 11.26 million viewers, dropping just one tenth from last week.  The episode was the most-watched scripted program of the night, and NBC just recently picked the James Spader-led show up for a full season.
